Verse 1
I was feeling down, hanging 'round,
Just thinking about me.
Then I turned around and I saw my brother smiling at me.

His clothes were out of style,
It'd been awhile since he'd had a lot of time to himself.
But he's looking out for others and happy,
Caring about somebody else.

Chorus
Nothing can compare to this life
And the joy that's warming my heart,
Giving to me more than I gave away.
The way I'm living is right,
As long as I'm doing my part.
To make somebody else feel the same way.

Verse 2
I ain't got a penny,
But check out the number of friends around me right now.
They know I'm a mess,
But you'd never guess the times they've helped me out.

I know it's crazy that I could get lazy,
When I've got so much to do.
With a paycheck in Heaven and my blessings,
It's easy to make it through.

Chorus
Nothing can compare to this life
And the joy that's warming my heart,
Giving to me more than I gave away.
The way I'm living is right,
As long as I'm doing my part
To make somebody else feel the same way.

Spoken Part
Nothing can compare to this life
And the joy that's warming my heart,
Giving to me, giving to me more than I gave away.

Verse 3 [a cappella]
I ain't got a penny,
But check out the number of friends around me right now.
They know I'm a mess,
But you'd never guess the times they've helped me out.

Chorus
Nothing can compare to this life
And the joy that's warming my heart,
Giving to me more than I gave away.
The way I'm living is right,
As long as I'm doing my part
To make somebody else feel the same way.

Nothing can compare to this life.
